Not too long ago, we repurposed a Surface Laptop SE – the proposed “Chromebook Killer” from Microsoft – and turned it into a functional Chromebook with the assistance of ChromeOS Flex. If you’ve not read up on this effort from Google, let me catch you up. ChromeOS Flex is essentially a version of ChromeOS designed to run on a variety of legacy hardware, not just Chromebooks. For older, still-capable hardware, ChromeOS Flex offers a new lease on life and can make slow laptops fast again and able to be fully managed just like any other ChromeOS peice of hardware.

You can install ChromeOS Flex from a USB drive, test it out, and if you find it works for what you need it for, you can then overwrite your existing operating system. ChromeOS Flex closely mirrors the features of ChromeOS on Chromebooks, though there are a few limitations. Linux support is hit-or-miss and there’s currently no access to Android apps, either. Other than that, though, everything you’ve come to expect on a Chromebook is here with ChromeOS Flex, and that even includes the new Lacros browser.
